The vote was 43 to 39. | Immediately after the measure was passed it was sent to the White House for the President’s signature. Administration leaders said the enactment of the bill will restore the President’s power to devalue the dollar and further revive the dormant stabilization fund, both of which expired last Friday midnight. The bill also provides for fixing the price of domestic silver at 71.11 cents an ounce the Treasury must pay. ——————— Mrs. L. P. Kelly Visiting Relatives Mrs. L. P.
